Loads of RAWs copied onto two drives and written to CDs.
I scanned all the good pictures that I have taken on film over the last 20
years and backed up both files to a CD. I then burnt the film. This neatly
solved all of my filing problems and freed up plenty of storage space for
dead hard drives and unreadable CDs.

Having been forced into assuming the role of Lone Curmudgeon in Andrew F.'s
absence, let me say that I consider this unhappy occurrence to really be a
lesson in the inestimable advantages of continuing to USE FILM! I have
slides and negatives going all the way back to the late '50s that are still
in perfect condition. And I know just exactly where they are. And I know
what to do with them.
Sorry for your loss, though, C.H.
I hate this computer; I think I'll sell it.
It won't do what I want, just what I tell it.
